I think I am turning into a lizard.

So Ive been using 5% Rogaine for about three weeks now, mostly on my temple area. I dont know for sure if this is related but lately my skin, especially around my eyes and ears, has been ridiculously dry and flaky. It feels very scaly as well. Is this because of the Rogaine, and, if so, is there any way to stop these side effects?

Re: I think I am turning into a lizard.

I would stop the Rogaine if I was you. From my own experience it will do more harm than good and could take 6 months + to recover. My skin was a wreck because of Rogaine and after 3 months i'm finally at a point where I'm happy and noticing a recovery.

There are those who are not affected by Rogaine in this manner, but there are those of us that are. You are showing signs that it will wreck havoc
